THE STUPID. IT HURTS. AND IT'S PRACTICALLY TANGIBLE.

"[Robin Hood would] have more in common with our Founding Fathers or Ronald Reagan than the likes of Stalin, Marx, or Sean Penn."

The Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves at the woefully inaccurate way that right-wing nuts like this bastard are interpreting their legacy. D= If the Founding Fathers and Reagan had ever met, the FF would have taken turns slapping Reagan in the face repeatedly. >_> Also, Stalin is NOT a socialist/communist kthnx. He's a fascist who slapped the "socialist" label on himself to a) fool the masses at the time and b) give Republicans the idea that "socialism" is a 4-letter word.

"Every time I hear some dumb college know-it-all or stupid self-righteous celebrity use the story of Robin Hood as an argument for socialism , I want to punch them right in their perfectly zoom-whitened teeth."

Because having something called INTELLIGENCE is totally a bad thing, amirite? >_> Every time I hear someone glorifying stupidity, I want to punch THEM in the face.

"See the one point that liberals miss when they read the story of Robin Hood was that the man never stole from “the rich.”"

Uh, sounds like YOU'RE the one missing the point. ANYONE who knows about Robin Hood knows he stole from the rich and gave to the poor. DUH.

"Robin Hood sees the injustice in hard-workers living in squalor while corrupt government officials “be livin’ likes pimps” (this is a quote from the original text, of course)."

You can't be serious. Quote from the original text? What version of Robin Hood did YOU read, Robin Hood for Dummies?

"Hmmm… I’m still not seeing this as any sort of socialist crusade. Where in the story does Mr. Hood steal from small business owners or entrepreneurs?"

Uhhh, that's NOT what socialism is about. IF anything, the ones stealing from small business owners and entrepreneurs are the corporations, kthnx.

"Perhaps it’s my mere fourth-grade reading equivalency getting the best of me, but nowhere in the book do I see the Prince of Thieves even SUGGEST any sort of higher or additional taxes."

1. If he really has only a 4th-grade reading level equivalency, then that explains his entire essay. =P
2. About the taxes thing, again, that's NOT what Socialism is about, and again, you managed to completely miss the point. Way to be a fucking moron.

Yeah, I'd like to know what planet this guy's been living under a rock on. >_>

rant, the stupid it burns, omgwtf, fail, politics, sometimes people suck
